I always been a fan of the k cups. We usually use the big coffee pot on the weekend when we have more people over for breakfast. The machine was leaking at the beginning but so far haven’t had any other issues. The coffee that came with it wasn’t my type but my store has plenty to pick for. Now I need me a cup to match and it would be perfect. Definitely recommend if it’s just you and another person. I love using the southern Lipton tea with my machine.
